I was planning to give this Bible to a friend who is about 60 years old. I was very surprised to see how small the text was and I don't think I remember seeing that in the description. Usually when you buy a Bible the description tells you what size the text is, like 7-10 point, for example. This one only gave the dimensions of the book itself. I ended up giving it to someone younger as a gift, but maybe that is who I was supposed to give it to anyway!
